Talking The 'Jen1977ni' Thread!

Thought I'd start a wee thread to track our journey over the next few months til we hopefully end up in Australia in January 2010! (Fingers crossed!)

Monday 26th October 2009

ENS 120 visa granted, thanks to my wonderful OH obtaining sponsorship, took only 33 days from receipt, WOW!

Thursday 29th October 2009

Passports sent off to Aussie House in London for those wee stickers. Used DHL...oh I wonder why....lol

Sounds like a plan... try and get some Vid footage and post it up will be great to see the reaction from the kids and parents

Again good luck and keep us informed.

DHL man refused delivery at Aussie House...all because he went to the wrong door! If only I'd seen this before I made the courier booking!

Hi there , often read your posts as we too are from NI . We finally got here 5 weeks ago and slowly settling. Harder than you think but good at the same time. Glad youve got the visa. Where in Qld you heading? Best of luck with the journey ahead.

Near a place called Toowoomba... Where have you ended up yourselves, so far, do you feel you've made the right move?
